'Sarri will be gone by 9am tomorrow'

Sarri won’t survive tonight. Well he might until 9am tomorrow. If he does survive tonight, do you have to question the owner's ambition?

I remember Sarri saying we'll be better in the second half of the season.
He’s done himself so much damage with the things he’s said. You can’t be beaten
4-0 by Bournemouth and humiliated by Man City. He signed Jorginho. They’re a one-trick pony.

'Worrying times for Chelsea'

It's worrying times for Chelsea. They've got important matches coming up and they need to pick themselves up. Without the ball they showed no reaction, no hunger to get the ball back. It's all nice with the ball, but they didn't create.

'Apathy around the place'

There’s an increasing apathy around the place. When you turn
up to your club who have won trophies recently and you’re watching this. It’s comfortable for Man Utd. Chelsea
have given it a go you could argue, but it’s all come through Eden Hazard. A minute ago he was moaning to Marcos Alonso 'why am I having to do your work at left-back?'

'I'm not worried'

'Sarri has got some serious thinking to do'

Lee Dixon

Former Arsenal and England defender on BBC Radio 5 live

Off tonight's performance something has to
change. And if Sarri is reluctant to change the personnel or tactics, or maybe put
some young players in, you have to say the owner will look at this and say
where can we go from here?

Sarri has got some serious thinking to do. The team are not
responding to anything he does.

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri speaking to BBC Sport: "Tonight we were unlucky because we played a very good first half and at the end of the half the score was 2-0. We gave them a few opportunities. We played confusing football in the second half. After the first half it wasn't easy to play with that score. We played very good first half.

"I feel the pressure for results of course, not about something else.

"We have to work, we have to speak, we have to find more aggression and determination in both boxes."

'Sarri will be sacked for numerous reasons'

Ex-Chelsea striker on BBC Radio 5 live

History tells us the Chelsea owner doesn’t mess about. You’d have to
question his appetite If he doesn’t sack the manager. He’ll get the sack for
numerous reasons – things he’s said, that he can’t motivate the players, his inability
to be able to adapt and change.

They’re a one-trick pony. Everyone knows the way
they are playing. That will ultimately be his downfall.

Post update

'Only positive was a brew'

Chelsea 0-2 Man Utd

Lee Dixon

Former Arsenal and England defender on BBC Radio 5 live

The fans let the players and manager know how they were
feeling. The night fizzled out. The tactics, we know what will happen from
minute one to minute 90. Sometimes it works. When it doesn’t work, they look
awful.

The midfield look terrible without the ball right now. The defence is
shell-shocked. They’re not scoring goals from midfield. When you’re leaking
goals and not scoring goals, your confidence is low and the tactics don’t really
change, there’s no positives tonight apart from the work-rate of Hazard.

He
wasn’t in the game much, they nullified him. They nullified Chelsea’s tactics
which teams are doing now. Where Mata played in that false number 10 role,
dropping on the back of his heels and nicking the ball off him and crowding him
out. They split the centre forwards to hold the back four back and that worked.

Their midfield was more industrious and their runs weren’t checked by anybody.
There are no positives tonight. Not one positive, apart from the cup of tea at
half-time.
